[tei-council] main font changed for gidlines -- found the problem chars...

[Martin Holmes]

Latest build results, which are identical on my brand-new Ubuntu 2012 
(which has never had any MS fonts on it) and on the current live teiJenkins:

$ grep -i missing Guidelines_teiJenkins.log | sort -u
Missing character: There is no 三 in font DejaVu Sans Mono/ICU!
Missing character: There is no 可 in font DejaVu Sans Mono/ICU!
Missing character: There is no 孔 in font DejaVu Sans Mono/ICU!
Missing character: There is no 小 in font DejaVu Sans Mono/ICU!
Missing character: There is no 欄 in font DejaVu Sans Mono/ICU!
Missing character: There is no 的 in font DejaVu Sans Mono/ICU!
Missing character: There is no 見 in font DejaVu Sans Mono/ICU!

And I've found where they are, I think -- look at this:

<exemplum xml:lang="en">
     <egXML xmlns="http://www.tei-c.org/ns/Examples">
       <layoutDesc>
         <layout columns="2" ruledLines="42">
           <p><locus from="f12r" to="f15v"/>
    2 columns of 42 lines pricked and ruled in ink, with
    central rule between the columns.</p>
         </layout>
         <layout columns="3">
           <p><locus from="f16"/>小孔的三欄可見.</p>
         </layout>
       </layoutDesc>
     </egXML>
   </exemplum>

It's in layoutDesc.xml.

I would fix it if I could figure out how; the "en" is correct for tje 
exemplum itself. If I add xml:lang="zh_TW" to the <p> tag surrounding 
the text, will that do it?

I'm assuming it's Chinese -- there are no hiragana or katakana -- but it 
could be early Japanese. Who should we ask?

Cheers,
Martin
